Alf Hoivik Injured 
In Gas Explosion 


Alf Hoivik of Carbon received 
severe burns on his hands and 
minor burns to his face Saturday 
afternoon about 2.45 p.m. when an 
explosion occured in the pump 
house at the rear of his home. Dr. 
G.L. McFarlane was called and af- 
ter treatment Mr. Hoivik was taken 
to the Drumheller hospital where 
his condition is reported as good. 

Mr. Hoivik had been pumping 
water from the drilled well into 
a cistern for about three hours 
during the afternoon. He then shut 
off the pump switch on the wall 
of his home and on opening the 
door of the pump house was met 
by a sheet of flame. An accumu- 
lation of natural gas from the well 
in the pump house is believed to 
have ignited in some manner and 
the resulting explosion took place 
just as Mr. Hoivik opened the door. 

The east wall of the pump house 
was bulged outward by the force 
of the explosion and the roof was 
lifted slightly, causing a _ crack 
about an inch wide under the eave. 
Painiye the door side of the build- 
ingt we scorched and the window 
glass cracked.

Memorial Service 


The regular October meeting of 
the Carbon branch of the Canadian 
Legion was held in the Legion Hall 
Friday evening, October 21, with 
about 20 members in attendance. 
Main topics of discussion were the 
Memorial Service scheduled for 
November 11, and the Poppy Day 
program. 

Date for the selling of poppies 
was set at Saturday, November 5, 
and it was decided to again en- 
list the aid of the Carbon Students’ 
Union to sell poppies on that date. 
Morris Switzer was appointed to 
contact the Students’ Union in this 
regard. The business places in the 
village have already been canvass- 
ed for wreaths and their orders 
taken. 

A suggestion by Padre J.W. 
that the service be held in 
Scout Hall and that ministers of 
other churches be asked to take 
part was agreed to, and Padre Way 


Way 
the 


was asked to contact the ministers | 


and make the necessary 
ments. 
and other particulars of 
vice, will appear in next 
issue of The Chronicle. 
Comrade C. Cave, secretary-treas- 
urer of the Carbon branch, reported 
that he was leaving to spend the 
winter months in B.C. and request- 
ed that an appointment be made 


arrange-

week's 


in his place. Comrade J.A. Barr 
offered his services until election 
of new officers, which will take 


place in the near future. 

Nominations for officers will be 
held at the next meeting, and if 
a_ sufficient number of members 
are present elections will also take 
place. Legion members and all 
other returned men are asked to 
turn out in full foree for this im- 
portant meeting. If insufficient 
members are present the election 
of officers will be held at the De- 
cember meeting. 

A letter from Zone Headquarters 
stated. that the district meeting 
will be held at Trochu on Wed- 
a Zone 


entitled to two votes in this elec- 
tion and an effort will be made to 
have a fair representation from 
Carbon at the meeting. 


Hermanson Baby 
Fund Financial 
Statement Issued 


Bert Charlebois, president of the 
Carbon Lions Club, has been ad- 
vised by the Calgary doctor that 
the first operation on Baby Her- 


marison to correct a hair lip and | 


cleft pallet was a complete success. 
We wish to express our apprecia- 
tion and thanks to all those who 
so willingly contributed towards 
the fund. A statement of the ac 
count appears below. 

While we show a_ surplus of 
$146.84 we are still short of our 
objective by from $300 to $400. As 
a second, 


operation, is to be made in the 
summer of 1950 which we under- 
stand will cost as much as the 


first, a further campaign for funds 
will be made. 

Our special thanks go to the 
members of the Duke of York 


Chapter of the I.0.D.E., who con- 
tributed the sum of $141.00, 
made up of $50 given from funds 
on hands and $91 raised from a 
dance sponsored by the I.0.D.E. in 
aid of the fund. 

Contributions to this cause are 
still being accepted and any mem 
ber of the Lions Club will be pleas 
ed to accept donations from those 
who wish to give. 

The final list of donors appears 
in this issue of The Chronicle. Of- 
ficial receipts will go forward from 
the Lions Club in the near future

Juvenile Delinquency 


SUBJECT OF 


THI JUVENILE DELINQUENCY has received consid- 


erable attention during the past few years and has come to be regarded as 
one of the most serious social problems of the day. However, statistics in- 
dicate that in spite of the fact that a great deal is hbara regarding this 
subject, the rate of juvenile crime in Canada is decreasing. It was recog- 
nized that the war was responsible for many cases and figures show that 
in 1942 an all-time high was reached in juvenile crime here, when there 
were 11,758 major and minor convictions, At that time the absence from 
home of many fathers who were serving in the armed forces, and of moth- 
ers Who worked in munition plants or in industries, contributed extensively 
to the high rate of juvenile crime

war marked the resumption of normal living in many families and thus 
removed one cause of delinquency. In addition, communities throughout 
t country have provided facilities for recreation, parent education classes,

children and young people. In several of the provinces the governments 
ha enacted additional laws for the protection of youth.

Another factor which is Known to have contributed a 


Help Given great deal to the lessening of juvenile crime is the 


By Police sympathetic attitude given to this problem by the po- 


lice In many districts constables are appointed to deal 


especially with this work and much credit is given to the “police and 
youth” programme introduced by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and 
taken up by municipal and civic police in many communities. This pro- 
gramme includes lectures on the work of the police, and on citizenship, 
given in schools and before groups of children and young people. The police 
also participate in games, form athletic clubs for juveniles and visit Boys’ 


industrial Homes, in the course of this work. Undoubtedly the home is the 


most important influence in a child's life and it is there that they should 
learn respect for the law and the principles of good citizenship, For chil- 
dren who have been brought up with the proper attitude to these matters, 
the instruction given by the police in schools and elsewhere further em- 
phasizes the things which they have been taught, while for children who 
have not the advantages of good homes, the work done by the police is 

t valuable. The enlightened approach to most problems is through 


yn, and great credit is due 


entic to the R.C.M.P., and the members of 
forces throughout the country who are effectively helping to prevent 
juvenile delinquency at this time.

Four Ontario Boys 
Win Inter-County 
Plowing Match 


One of the very interesting events 
at the International Plowing Matches 
held recently at Burford was the 
daily demonstration of contour plow- 
ing featured by the Ontario Agri- 
cultural College. Some Ontario farm- 
ers already practise contour plowing. 
Others are studying soil conservation 
and investigating the benefits which 
may be derived from it. By winning 
the Salada Tea Inter-County Plowing 
Match, four Ontario boys will have

Vancouver Man 
Invents New 
Licence Plate 


VANCOUVER.—Permanent licence 
plates which do double duty as en- 
larged tail-lights have been invented 
by a Vancouver man and will be of- 
fered to the B.C. government soon, 

Inventor is 65-year-old L. J. 
Walshe, 

Models constructed by, Mr. Walshe 
consist simply of perforated glass or 
plastic, with numbers on the outside 
and a light on the inside. 

By day, the device resembles a 
somewhat bulkier edition of an ordi-

illuminated with the red light at the 
rear, and a white light at the front.

“Canned Grass” New Method 
For Storage Of Forage Crops 


—Preserves More Nutrients 


TORONTO. — Machine methods of harvesting hay and other 
forage crops to bring June feeding in January will be shown Can- 
adian farmers at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in November. 
“Canned Grass’, as the method is known, provides for storage of 
forage crops from the time they are cut until the farmer forks 


them out of the silo in winter. 


Harvesting hay at the correct 
stage of growth produces more suc- 
culent feed, it is claimed, and provides 
a greater percentage of protein, 
carotene and other. valuable nutri- 
ents, Using a new forage clipper, 
the farmer in one trip across a field 
may cut, chop and load green hay 
in one operation. Mowing, raking, 
stacking and hand pitching are elim- 
inated. 

The new machine is provided with 
a mowing knife and also a pick-up 
attachment so that a farmer may 
cut his hay in the field with the ma- 
chine and process it all in the one 
operation, or he can cut it with the 
mower and pick it up with the pick- 
up attachment. The same machine 
is also equipped with a corn cutting 
attachment, 

Extensive tests carried out in Can- 
ada and the United States have

ATOMIC ENERGY 
One pound of properly utilized 
atomic fuel could provide the same 
amount of energy as 1,500 tons of 
coal or 230,000 gallons of oil, scien- 
tists report. Under contract from 
the Atomic Energy commission en- 
gineers have begun a joint project 
to build the first atomic power plant 

for driving a U.S. navy ship. 


On The Side 


PRP PPPS 


shown that when a farmer climbs 
into his haymow in the winter time 
and lifts a forkful of alfalfa, he is 
holding from 30 to 50 per cent. less 
food value than the same forage con- 
tained when it was mown the previ- 
ous summer. Feeding grasses and 
legumes as hay is believed one of the 
most appalling wastes in farming. 

The cure, agricultural experts 
claim, is simple: The farmer may 
now cut his hay while it is still 
knee-high grass, rich in protein and 
carotene, chop it fine while it is still 
moist, store it in a silo or pit. 

Preserved in its own juices, the 
canned grass is finally fed with its 
full complement of vitamins and pro- 
teins. Any cutting of grass can be 
made into good silage providing it is 
green enough to pack, it is claimed. 

Recommended to farmers are the 
following rules: 

For best results use a 60-40 mix 
of grasses and legumes, timothy and 
red clover; alfalfa and brome; soy- 
beans and millet or even weeds and 
timothy. Mow the grasses right af- 
ter the heads have emerged; alfalfa 
in early bloom; clover half to full 
bloom; cereals, pre-bloom to early 
dough. 

Winnow and let the sun wilt out 
to a moisture content of 62 to 68 
per cent. 


| T.B. Not Inherited | 


Scientific evidence does not justify 
the belief that children born of tu- 
berculous parents have a heredity 
susceptibility to the disease. Chil- 
dren of tuberculous mothers or fa- 
thers do contract more tuberculosis 
than those of the general population 
however, if they remain in contact 
with their parents, a medical con- 
sultant explains. 

Children of tuberculous parents 
who do not have contact with the 
parents after birth but who at some 
subsequent time are exposed to con- 
tagion do not contract more primary 
tuberculosis than children under the 
same circumstances of parents not 
having the disease. The belief that 
susceptibility to tuberculosis is in- 
herited from parents having the dis- 
ease was so firmly implanted in the 
minds of many people during the 
Middle Ages that it has been carried 
down to the present day.—The Jour- 
nal of the American Association.

All experts on life among the married are agreed a man’s 


occupation has a definite bearing on what kind of husbanc he will make. 
For example, it has been claimed a travelling salesman is often a poor 
matrimonial risk.. He is away from home too much and, lacking the con- 
trolling hand of his wife, is likely to succumb to some of the wide variety 
of temptations by which a man travelling alone is confronted. Men whose 
work brings them into contact with a number of females of the predatory 
type are only good matrimonial risks if they are madly in love with their 
wives and possessed of strong character, A man who has a nerve-wrack- 
ing job is likely to be a husband difficult to handie because he arrives home 
on edge and may fly off the handle for practically no reason at all, Men 
who have exciting and highly interesting work during the day are inclined 
to want to stay home and take it easy at night. This is tough on a wife 
who has been home all day and wants to go out for a little excitement in 
the evening.

Dear Miss James: 

We are going to redecorate our 
living and dining rooms which are 
separated by a wide arch. The two 
rooms together measure only 19 feet, 
so we want to get a scheme that 
will give an illusion of size. 

In the living room we have, at 
present, a chesterfield, one chester- 
field chair and a wing chair, a coffee 
table, and two end tables. In the 
dining room we have a drop leaf wal- 
nut table, four chairs and a buffet. 
We have a grey-green broadloom 
carpet on the living room floor. 

In adjoining rooms like this, must 
you have matching carpets? Or 


Woman Proves 


Rhubarb Pie Is 
Good Bear Bait 


DAWSON CREEK, B.C.—Take it 
from Mrs, Joe Dill of this northern 
community: rhubarb pie is the best 
bear bait. 

A harrowing three hours alone in 
her cabin with freshly baked rhubarb 
pie and two bears made Mrs. Dill 
reach this conclusion. 

Mrs. Dill’s rhubarb pies—as so of- 
ten happens with fruit pies—boiled 
over in the oven, giving off an aroma 
of burnt sugar that brought unex- 
pected results. 

It wasn’t long before two huge 


grizzlies, both with noses sniffing the | 
air, ambled out of the bush towards) 


the cabin. Unarmed, Mrs. Dill used 
her voice to frighten off the grizzlies. 
But two black bears arrived 
the scene and paid no attention to 
shouts or even hot water thrown in 
their faces, For three hours they 
circled the cabin sniffing through 
windows as the pies boiled away. Re- 
turn of Mr. Dill with a hunting rifle 
finally drove off the curious bears.

I have a lovely mulberry carpet 
which goes nicely with that in the 
living room and would like to use it 
in the dining room, 

We are going to re-paper the walls 
in both rooms, slipcover the furniture 
in the living room, and get new cur- 
tains for the two windows in the liv- 
ing room and the one in the dining 
room. I would like to have your 
ideas on a suitable colour scheme for 
these two rooms. Mrs. P. R. 

* * 
Dear Mrs, P. R.: 
No, it isn’t necessary to match the

floor covering in two adjoining 
rooms. It would be a good idea in 
your case, of course, because your 


rooms are so small—and matching 
floors do give an illusion of greater 
space, However, since you have your 
two nice carpets, you will no doubt 
want to make use of them—so you 
can turn to other means of making 
your rooms look larger. 

Do try to combine your two rooms 
into one large one. You can take 
your cue from your floor covering. 
Choose, for both rooms, a wallpaper 
with a grey-green background and 
|lacy pattern in mulberry. Your wood- 
work could be painted grey-green to 
match the wallpaper background. 

In slipcovering your chesterfield, 
choose a tailored stripe in grey-green 
jand mulberry. This fabric would 
jalso be a good choice for your three 
windows. Your chesterfield chair 
could be slipcovered in a plain grey- 
|green fabric, your wing chair in plain

Trying Radar For 
Bird Flight Control 


LONDON, — Canadian scientists 
are trying to control the flight of 
birds by radar, a BBC speaker said. 

Lt.-Cmdr, Peter Scott of the royal 
navy disclosed that low-power trans- 
mitters have succeeded momentarily 
jin the controlling of the flight of mi- 
|gratory ducks. 

He hinted that the experiments 
may lead to one of the greatest dis- 
coveries of the century—radio con- 
trol of living things. 

Scott, son of the late Captain 
Scott who died in the Antarctic in 


1912, is a noted bird watcher and 
artist. He described experiments by 
Dr. Albert Hochbaum at the Delata

have lost track. Many have for-

thought them worthless. 


Tracers Company of America base 
their estimate on a survey made two

They now are invading the Cana-

to find their missing shareholders. 
They are Abitibi Power and Paper

Uranium In 
Northwest 
Territories 


KELOWNA, B.C.—Heavy min- 
ing machinery will goon be mov- 
ing into a new uranium field, 
discovered near Great Slave 
Lake in the Northwest Territor- 
ies and which might be poten- 
tially the richest in all Canada. 

E. Hartley, managing director of 
Yellowknife Volcanic Gold Mines, 
Kelowna, B.C., said his firm would 
build a road before Christmas from 
the find on Marion Lake through to 
Great Slave Lake for transportation 
of equipment and supplies, 

Preliminary reports of a total of 
21 different assays, made both in 
Toronto and Ottawa, revealed a 1.52 
average uranium oxide in ore taken 
from a depth down to four feet, 
Hartley said. 

The fabulous Eldorado mine had 
an ore content of one per cent. 

“The area has great potentialities,” 
Hartley said. “It looks like a very 
substantial strike we've made. The 
assays are higher than we anticipat- 
ed. We're only in the early stages 
now, however.” 


“It may be that we've really got 
something,’ Hartley added, “but it’s 
hard to tell just yet. After all at 
Eldorado they've been working on it 
for years, and a comparison is pretty 
well impossible at this stage. But 
we certainly do have a’ mighty po- 
tential property, It potentially might 
be better than Eldorado.” 

Hartley however, said cost of min- 
ing the ore would be fairly high at 
about $2,000 a ton. 

The find was originally made Sept. 
23 by Ted Hartley, son of the man- 
aging director. 

The ore was believed concentrated 
in a compact area ranging from two 
to 10 feet wide and 260 feet long. 


Honey Crop 
Down This Year 


OTTAWA—Canada’s honey crop is 
31 per cent. lower than last,year. 
And, according to bee experts, you 
can’t blame it on the bees. As usual, 
the guilty party is the weather man. 

Bureau of statistics reports places! 
the 1949 crop at 31,286,000 pounds, 
away below the near-record produc- 
tion of 45,145,000 last year and the 
lowest since the honey-short year of 
1946, when only 23,185,000 pounds 
were produced, . 

Production by Western provinces 
and Ontario with 1948 outputs in 
brackets was: Ontario 10,655,000 
(15,736,000; Manitoba 4,800,000 (6,- 
525,000); Saskatchewan 5,200,000 (6,- 
492,000); Alberta 6,050,000 (10,254,- 
000); British Columbia 905,000 (918,- 
000).

OTTAWA. — Prices of farm pro-

in August, the statistics bureau re-

Continuing the trend shown since} 


the first of the year, agricultural 
prices dropped half a point from}

Compared with last year, prices 
were lower for grains, dairy products 
and potatoes. Poultry and eggs were 
slightly higher, and livestock was

Butter Stocks 
Steadily Increase 


OTTAWA—Canada’s storage ware- 
houses are filled with 30 times more 
butter than margarine. 

Bureau of statistics figures show 
that creamery butter stocks at Oct. 
1 amounted to 72,222,000 pounds. 
| Margarine holdings totalled 2,358,000. 

Most of the butter is being held 
by the government as a price-sup- 
port, measure, It probably will be 
| sold during the winter months when 
no butter is produced in Canada.

The butter stocks of 72,222,000 
pounds compared with 66,957,000 on 
Sept. 1 and 653,713,000 on Oct. 1 
1948, 

Compared. with the nine-month 
production of 228,319,000 pounds of 
butter, margarine production for that

Ottawa, Dec. 12-14 


The annual Dominion-Provincia) 
Agricultural Conference, usually held 
during the first week of December, 
will convene this year in Ottawa, 
December 12-14. This change is 
considered desirable as a number of 
key officials who will attend the Con- 
ference are also delegates to the 5th 
Annual Session of the Food and Ag- 
riculture Organization in Washing-| 
ton whose sessions extend into the 
first week in December.

to hold for agriculture. | 

It is hoped that delegates can be}

Combination Of 


Soil And Health 
A Definite Hope 


Soil and health linked 


But when they 


are today, 


were joined, as they were, 40 years 


}ago by a man far in advance of his 


contemporary scientists, one who 
went deep to eternal fundamental 
truths which would serve the future 


if obeyed, there was not as much 
reason for understanding. Truby 
|King, acknowledged today by dis- 


men the world over as a 
benefactor for all time, put soil and 
health as the second stone in the 
foundation of his Society for the 
of Woman and Children of 
New Zealand, now known as Mother- 
craft around the world, Incidentally, 
the first fundamental was the mother 
and child as a unit, not two separate 
entities; the third was harmony be- 
tween the physical and spiritual, 

Ravage of the soil of all countries 
of the globe, but particularly of the 
newer lands, with consequent 
terious maladies which are put down 
as deficiency diseases, have roused 
people everywhere to a new under- 
standing. Undernourishment in a 
portion of the existing world, and 
definite fear of starvation for a por- 
tion of the race in the future, offer 
mocking comment on the hope of a 
peaceful world. Yet within that 
combination of soil and health is defi- 
nite hope. 

The Canadian Mothercraft Society 
has aroused sufficient interest in the 


importance of soil and health, and in} 


the Albert Howard method of com- 


posting and other organic procedure 


to have effected the organization of 
a Canadian Soil and Health Associa- 
tion, with a medical man, Dr. F. H. 
C. Baugh, head of Homewood Sani- 
tarium, Guelph, as its head. Appli- 
cation for a charter, made 
months ago has as yet been ungrant- 
ed, In the meantime expressions of 
interest, requests for information and 
offers of monetary assistance have 
eontinued to arrive. 

The primary concern of the Cana- 
dian Mothercraft Society is the 
mothers and babies of Canada and 
world, For this purpose they 
must have registered nurses to take

Rail Link Would 
Open Rich Land 


VANCOUVER.—Construction of a 
railway from Prince George, B.C., to 
Fairbanks, Alaska, would open a land 
reported rich in coal, oil and min-

Too, it would provide a vital de- 
fence link in United States plans to 
guard far north possessions, 


In Washington the senate adopted 
and sent to President Truman for 
approval a bill authorizing him to 
negotiate with Canada to survey a 
1,400 mile rail link with Alaska, 

Federal agencies would be called 
on to co-operate with Canada in the 
survey. 

Building of the road would cost 
possibly $700,000,000 to $1,000,000,-

GEMS OF THOUGHT 


CHRISTIAN BROTHERHOOD 


Our doctrine of equality and lib- 
erty and humanity comes from our 
belief in the brotherhood of man, 
through the fatherhood of God. 

—Calvin Coolidge. 


The brotherhood of man is an in- 
tegral part of Christianity no less 
than the Fatherhood of God; and to 
deny the one is no less infidel than 
to deny the other.—Lyman Abbott, 

The only hope of avoiding war is 
to accept Christianity as a way of 
life, not only in our private affairs, 


but in all public and international 
contacts.—Canon Sheppard.

The inevitable trend of Canadian 
agriculture to mechanization was

tal cash income received by farmers. 

Economic conditions significantly 
influence the rate of farm mechan- 
ization and the remarkable expan- 
sion in total purchases during the 
1946-48 period was due in part to un- 
filled needs carried over from the de- 
pressed thirties, as well as the war- 
time rationing program, 

During the depression years, farm- 
ers were hard hit and made every 
effort to avoid new capital outlays 
although farm machinery was in 
good supply. The reverse was true 
during World War II, when farmers 
had the money but there was a 
shortage of new machinery. 


Greater mechanization of farm op- 
erations means greater efficiency in 
production, Probably because the 
Prairies are so suitable to rapid 
mechanization, prairie farmers pur- 
chased more farm machinery than 
any other regional group in the 11- 
year period under consideration. 
Their total outlay, at wholesale val- 
ue, amounted to - $451,000,000 or 
about 60 per cent. of Canadian ex- 
penditures, 

On a provincial total basis, Sask- 
atchewan -farmers have been the 
heaviest investors. In Eastern Can- 
ada, with its smaller farms, rapid 
mechanization is being made possible 
by the introduction of smaller types 
of equipment, 

By reducing the whole picture to 
the size of a single farm, it is fairly 
simple to visualize the extent of 
these expenditures. Using wholesale 
values as published by the Dominion

HEALTH 


Health Attacks 
Medical Writer 


Recent statement in a syndicated 
medical advice column, circulated 
widely in Canada and the United 
States, that the writer of the column 
prefers “Grade A raw milk from a 
tuberculin-tested herd, because I like 
the taste of it and believe it is ab 
solutely safe,” has drawn adverse 
comment from Health, Canada’s Na- 
tional Health Magazine. 

Health, which is published by the 
Health League of Canada, comments 
editorially that generally speaking 
the information and advice offered in 
various syndicated medical and 
health columns is of value, and that 
it is without a doubt a good thing 
to disseminate information to news- 
paper readers on how to keep 
healthy. However, the publication 
adds that the particular statement 
to which it refers and which con- 
cerns the relative values of raw and 
pasteurized milk, is utterly at vari- 
ance with the opinion of all reputable 
health authorities, 


“Grade A raw milk is comparable 
to what we call ‘certified’ milk,” says 
Health, “It is supposed to come from 
tuberculin tested cows and to have 
been produced under ideal circume 
stances, yet it has been shown re- 
peatedly that certified milk can and 
does from time to time carry the 
germs of tuberculosis, 

“The writer of this column fails te 
inform hig readers that tuberculin 
tests in cattle are occasionally false 
and that, when milk from a tubercu- 
lin-tested cow in which the test has 
gone wrong is mixed with uncon- 
taminated milk, it will infect it with 
tuberculosis, 

“This is not the first time that Dr, 
Wm. Brady, the commentator in 
question, has had the temerity to at- 
tempt to discredit the value of pas- 
teurized milk. Health Officers have 
challenged him for his attitude on 
other occasions, This magazine goes 
on record again as emphasizing the 
fact that the only safe milk is pas- 
teurized milk. Canada should look 
forward to the time when pasteur- 
ization will be compulsory in all 
provinces. It will then, it is hoped, 
be impossible to be influenced seri- 
ously by the foolish advice of medical 
commentators who should be wiser 
and better informed,”

That Summed 


By ANNA E. WILSON 


E WANT something to put in 

the newspaper, Mr. Swinburne, 
that sort of sums up her life. You 
knew her better than most. The re- 
porter dropped a pencil and pad on 
the table, “I’m going over to get a 
write-up on the fashion show at Ma- 
lic’s. Perhaps you'll have something 
for me when I get back.” 

Something that summed up Ellie's 
life? Mr, Swinburne had not thought 
of Ellie, not as a distinct person 
separated from her family, in years; 
not since she’d been married, and 
Ellie’'d married young. Hadn't been 
much of a life before that, either 
Must have been eight in Ellie’s fam- 
ily. When he first saw her, she 
wasn't even pretty. Blue eyes that 
filled with tears without reason but 
a good figure if she'd had any sort 
of clothes to show it off. Not having 
much of a life at home, it wasn't 
surprising that Ellie married young. 
Ed was one of the truck drivers at 
the plant where she worked. She 
made the best of what she had. Ed 
was good to her in his way, but life 
on his pay left no more for clothes 
than did her old job—what with fur- 
niture and coal and food. 

He remembered when Ellie’d lost 
her first baby, how quiet she’d seem- 
ed. Frightened, as if all at once 
she'd begun to realize that life might 
be too much for her in the end, Even 
with the doctor not paid, Ed had 
bought her a new dress, something 
he’d seen in Malic’s window, the 
exact color of Ellie's eyes. Made you 
feel good to see how pleased Ellie 
was, how her face shone when she 
touched the pretty silk, loving it 
even though she had no place to go 
to wear it.- Ellie didn’t go out much 
though Ed liked his checkers at the 
restaurant with his friends in 
evenings as much as any man, No 
harm in Ed. Sober and a good work- 
er, but he left Ellie a lot alone. 

Perhaps it was a good thing she'd 
had her family young. Five boys, 
and, as a sort of afterthought, a 
baby that didn’t grow up, Seemed

the | the trucking company, she couldn't 


as if Ellie couldn’t contain her hap- 
piness when little Ellen was born. 
Mere was somebody to dress up in 
the pretty clothes she'd been starved 
for. 

Five boys take « lot of bringing 
up. Doesn't give a woman much 
time to look after herself. Hadn't 
been much to look at all those years 
with her hair pulled back in a roll 
and not much choice between one 
faded house dress and the next. 
Folks said she wasn’t much of a 
housekeeper either, no aptitude for 
it, and maybe they were right, but 
somehow Ellie kept on, It was true 
the house wasn’t bare clean but may- 
be she didn’t mind the clutter kick- 
ed up by the boys. She taught them 
to tell the truth, speak clean and 
live straight because that was all 
she knew. 
Sundays when the dishes were 
done, Ellie used to pour over the 
fashions in the paper. Looked at 
the fancy figures of the models and 
talked about going on a diet though 
she never did, Once they wanted her 
to join the Ladies’ Aid but Ed was 
off work; laid up with a sore knee. 
He could see how much she wanted 
it but with things always in a clut- 
ter and no time to cook and clean 
for a meeting at her house, she'd giv- 
en up the notion and taken in a 
boarder instead, 

Didn't seem any time till the boys 
were grown up, and it did look as if 
Ellie was in for an easy time at last 
but the baby took pneumonia and 
died one Christmas and Ellie’d been 
different after that. Absent-minded, 
not caring much. Would have been 
easier if she’d had a grown daughter 
or even a girl to help out. but, with 
the funeral expenses and a lay-off at 


afford help. Didn’t make it any 
easier when Ed met with an accident 
and the judge wasn’t content to let 
it go with a fine. Ellie took in an- 
other boarder, 


Married young, the lad did, and 
left home, but even then _ things 
didn’t get any easier for Ellie. Ed 


was getting on and when a new rule 
came in about ages, he was laid off. 
He helped Ellie with the boarders 
until he got on as school janitor. 
Looking back know, it seemed as if 
Ellie’d lived all her life in that faded 
housedress and maybe she'd lost 
heart in the end, Got to thinking 


she might have done better than 
she did, “Tired”, the doctor said,

Work will be started as soon as 
possible on the development and 
farmers from crop-failure zones will 
likely begin to go to their new wa- 
tered land next year, with most mak- 


ing the switch in 1951.

these mangy killers, resulting in rapid exter- 
mination of our game herds. As the game be- 
comes scarce, the wolves are beginning to spill 
over the ranges into the foothills and prairies 
to prey on valuable domestic stock, Evidence 
that wolves are on the increase is that the gov- 


ernment paid bounty on 800 kills in the year 
ending March 31, 1949, 


Farmers and townspeople alike are urged 
to be on the lookout for these outalws and take 
\igorous action to track down and destroy them 
if they make an appearance in the area.

IN MEMORIAM 


In loving memory of a dear Wife 
and Mother, Lousia Ohlhauser, 
who passed away October 31, 1948. 


Sleep on good mother, it has been 
a long year, 
Since you left our hearts filled 
with sadness and tears; 
Yours was a heart that was blithe- 
some and gay, 
Scattering sunshine all 
way; 

You know how we loved you, and 
yes, love you yet, 

Though God took you from us—we 
cannot forget.

and Family
